Corsair Shows Off New Cases, Cooling, And Power Delivery At Computex 2026

Corsair used Computex 2026 to sharpen its DIY PC story around three big themes: showpiece cases, smarter high‑wattage power, and thicker, harder‑hitting AIO cooling. They then filled in the gaps with new fans, keyboards, chairs, and more. Get out your credit card; here are our top picks from all of Corsair’s Computex 2026 reveals.

WARTHOG And New Cases

Headlining the show is WARTHOG, a spiritual successor to Corsair’s old Vengeance C70 that brings back the ammo‑crate, military aesthetic in black or olive drab. Built on the FRAME 4000D chassis, it adds modern touches like InfiniRail fan and radiator mounting, integrated GPU anti‑sag, and a RapidRoute 2.0 motherboard tray, plus jet‑inspired “blockers” around the front I/O and a tongue‑in‑cheek “Remove Before Build” pull tab.

Corsair also extended its wood treatment to the larger FRAME 5000D WOOD RS, available in white oak or walnut, with updated USB‑C front I/O and a full‑glass side panel instead of the standard partial window. Existing FRAME 5000D owners can buy the wood front panel, upgraded I/O, and new glass side separately.

AX1600i SHIFT, HX1000i SHIFT CRYSTAL, And PinProtect

On the power side, the new AX1600i SHIFT updates Corsair’s flagship 1600 W PSU with side‑mounted “Shift” connectors, two native 12V‑2×6 ports for next‑gen GPUs, and a shorter 170 mm length to make it more realistic in standard mid‑towers. iCUE integration lets builders monitor and tweak PSU behavior either over an iCUE LINK System Hub or a plain internal USB header.

For something flashier, the HX1000i SHIFT CRYSTAL wraps a 1,000 W unit in a transparent shell with a white PCB, color‑matched components, and a 140 mm RGB fan, targeting wall‑mounted or pegboard builds that want the PSU on display. It’s also one of the first models to support the new PinProtect+ over‑current protection, which monitors 12V‑2×6 pins and can shut down a GPU if current stays too high, with iCUE control over the threshold. The more mainstream 2026 RM1200e will be among the first to ship with PinProtect built in, pairing Cybenetics Gold efficiency and a 160 mm shell with extra safety for high‑wattage GPUs.

TITAN II AIOs And Cooling Updates

Corsair’s iCUE LINK TITAN II ULTRA 360 LX LCD AIO sits at the top of a refreshed cooler lineup, using a dual‑layer cross‑flow radiator and second‑generation FlowDrive pump to deliver significantly better performance than previous TITAN models, at the cost of a thicker 40 mm radiator. For cases that can’t handle that thickness, the TITAN II 360 LX RGB/LCD variants keep the new pump but move to a more standard 27 mm single‑layer radiator.

To simplify fan layouts, Corsair introduced iCUE LINK LX360 and RX360 UNIFIED FRAME fans, which combine three 120 mm fans into a single frame for easier installation and cleaner cable management; RX focuses on airflow, while LX targets static‑pressure and comes in a reverse‑rotor variant for prettier intakes. Updated iCUE LINK RX II RGB fans round things out with lower minimum RPMs, quieter operation, and per‑fan temperature sensors that can drive both speed curves and lighting based on local temps.

Peripherals, chairs, and displays

In peripherals, the CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 debuts as a stripped‑down 60% esports keyboard with MGX HYPERDRIVE CORE magnetic switches, adjustable actuation from 0.2 to 3.8 mm, and support for Smart Tap, Multi Action, and Tap Lock via Corsair Web Hub. The NIGHTSWORD v2 WIRELESS SD refreshes the long‑running ergonomic mouse with a 33,000 DPI optical sensor, 2.4 GHz/Bluetooth connectivity, fast charging, and a dedicated Stream Deck button that turns its eight buttons into a virtual Stream Deck layer. The HS35 v3 gaming headset arrives in wired and wireless versions, focusing on comfort, broad device compatibility, and microphone clarity at entry‑level pricing.

Outside the box, the TC80 gaming chair combines built‑in lumbar support, a detachable neck pillow, and fabric in high‑wear zones bordered by leatherette, aiming at better long‑term durability without pushing into premium chair pricing. For RGB and screen obsessives, Corsair is also shipping an iCUE LINK 5‑inch LCD Screen Module as a cap‑swap upgrade for compatible AIOs, plus new “Crystal” and “Smoke” translucent colorways for the XENEON EDGE monitor line, keeping the same feature set but leaning harder into the clear‑case aesthetic.
